Comments Thread For: Lara on Canelo-Golovkin Beef: Canelo Should Vacate, I'll Fight Both!

"I'm not focused on him"

That should automatically remove Lara from being a leverage piece in arguments. As I said calling someone out but not having your people reach out to make a fight is something any of us here can do as well. Hope he gets both fights but he seems more fixated on staying at 154 which is fine as well.

So you just gonna leave out the part where he says he has a fight with Vanes coming up?

I'm not focused on him. I have a tough fight with Vanes coming up so I'll stay focused on him...

Forget Canelo for now, and go after Golovkin! Canelo will be around for a while. You can get your payback after fighting GGG!

Why would he do that? He gets destroyed by Ggg. Canelo is way easier, and more money probably

Lara is KOd a dead man walking the moment he sits to fight GGG

[JRS1980]

But the world and K2 knew Lara wanted GGG, before Lara signed on to fight Vanes. Why'd you leave that out?

That is categorically untrue. For over two years Lara has said he would fight GGG ...on his twitter account. It has been established that not one time has Lara's team actually reached out to K2 to try and make the fight. If Lara actually wanted to fight him, he had years to at least start a dialogue. Why do people assume that if someone calls out a fighter on twitter it is legit? If it were legit an offer would have been made.

All Lara needs to do is talk to his uncle Al to make the GG fight happen, instead of just making himself look silly blowing crap.

Look at Khan. He didn't just tweet and talk. He talked to Haymon, Hoya, even Arum. It's very simple. If you want the fight, talk to Haymon and tell him you want GG.

Canelo knows that he barely won that last fight! I had it a draw. He won't fight Lara again unless Lara beats GGG or Jacobs. Truthfully, I don't understand why Lara isn't chasing Jacobs??? Both Haymon guys! What better way to entice GGG or Canelo than to beat Jacobs first?

Lara's team doesn't even have to talk to Loeffler. Haymon will do everything for him. Problem is, they haven't even reached out to Haymon. They drop GG's name whenever they're promoting their crappy fight.

Lara, to his credit, will fight anyone.

I don't get the ggg's fans on this site. They'll talk noise about a guy who doesn't wanna fight their fighter(canelo) then do the same when someone says they will fight their fighter (lara)

I have no idea what would make these people happy. Besides ggg being feasted no hopers

Because he wants to fight the top dog at 160. That's like saying before the Floyd fight "I don't see why Pacquiao isn't chasing Bradley. Both are with Top Rank". Only GGG fans pawn other boxers off on other boxers. They did the same thing with Ward. "Why doesn't Ward fight Kovalev"
